Tax multipliers — Jura

Cantonal tax in Jura is obtained by applying 285 % to the base tax. Each municipality adds its own on top: 130 % in Les Breuleux, 235 % in Coeuve, across the canton's 51 municipalities. Withholding tax ignores that spread, since it applies a single average rate to the whole canton — one of the reasons switching to ordinary taxation does not give the same result from one municipality to the next.

Between Les Breuleux and Coeuve the gap reaches 105 multiplier points: at equal income and equal deductions, the ordinary bill is not the same depending on the address.

Church tax is added for members of a recognised church: 6.4 – 11.3 % depending on the municipality and denomination. With no declared denomination it is not levied.

A worked example in Delémont

Here is what the calculation gives in Delémont for a reference profile: single, no children, no recognised religious affiliation, on the median salary of a B permit holder (CHF 5'358 a month).

Annual gross salary

CHF 64'296

Net salary on the certificate

CHF 56'067

Withholding tax deducted

CHF 7'426

Annual saving under ordinary taxation

Without a 3rd pillar: CHF 1'180
With a 3rd pillar at the ceiling: CHF 3'059

Amounts modelled by our calculator on the 2026 tax scales, municipality of Delémont. The salary comes from the 2024 Swiss Earnings Structure Survey (FSO): median for B permit holders in the major region Jura belongs to, as the FSO does not publish a cantonal median. Your own situation will give a different figure.
